«Breaking News» Father of boy, 10, born without a left hand makes son NINE bionic arms with his own 3D printer

He may have been born without a left hand, but Jamie Miller has never struggled to adapt.

By the age of three he was riding his bike without stabilisers – and as he grew up he found he could play his PlayStation with one hand better than most could with two.

These days, however, he is in a league of his own after his father invested in a 3D printer and learnt how to make him limbs.

To date, Callum Miller has made Jamie, ten, an astonishing nine printed arms, including one from golden plastic and another with flashing LED lights.

Jamie, who has a sister Molly, 14, said: ‘I feel like a superhero. I would like to learn how to make them like my dad, so that I can help other people.’ 

Mr Miller, who lives in Stockton-on-Tees, near Middlesbrough, said: ‘He’s never made an issue out of the fact that he only has one arm – he just gets on with life.’

Jamie’s family did not discover he did not have a left hand until after his birth because it was not picked up by any of the scans. 

‘It was a shock but we never let Jamie think he had any disability,’ said Mr Miller, 51. ‘We just taught him to get on with life. We just taught him to do things with one hand.’

When Jamie was six, doctors at North Tees Hospital suggested an operation could be carried out where they would remove some of his toes and use them to fashion fingers for him.

But the family refused. Mr Miller said: ‘We didn’t see the point of taking off his toes and putting them somewhere else. His lack of a left hand had never held him back.’

The arms work from leads running down from his elbow. By bending the elbow it creates movement in his fingers

In 2017, Mr Miller, who sells parts for a motor company, found a charity called Team UnLimited, which uses 3D printers to help build robotic limbs. But they had an 18-month waiting list. So he bought a 3D printer himself.

At first he printed out toys as a test – and then decided to move on to a 3D arm after downloading designs online.

He said: ‘I printed out a hand originally but there wasn’t enough movement from it so I then moved on to a full arm. 

'On the first attempt it turned out really well, which was surprising. When Jamie put it on and started using it, it was really emotional. He went to school with it on and all his friends and teachers were really impressed.’

The arms work from leads running down from his elbow. By bending the elbow it creates movement in his fingers.

He said: ‘Jamie now helps me design the arms – and tells me what he wants on it. He wanted LED lights on this arm, so I had to research how to do that.’

Mr Miller, who is separated from Jamie’s mother Suzanne Chester, 36, is now looking to upgrade the arm by installing electronic sensors in it.

 

Link hienalouca.com Interesting to note Looking for an investor or sponsor for a project to grow dinosaurs and relict plants. Requires the sum of investments from 400000$ to 900000$. The exact amount can not say because there are many nuances. It will be necessary to build a small laboratory with certain parameters. To all interested persons please write on an email angocman@gmail.com . It is the scientific project and I do not know whether it is possible to earn on it. The probability of success of the project is approximately 60%. That will be very interesting.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
